Schenectady, New York - February 27, 2015 - Transfinder is very pleased to announce that it has been named one of the Best Companies to Work for in New York State for 2015.
“Transfinder recognizes the importance of creating a great work environment. People spend a lot of time in a demanding – yet professionally fulfilling – environment. There’s no reason why we can’t have fun while we’re doing great work together,” said Antonio Civitella, president and CEO of Transfinder, a leading provider of intelligent transportation systems for more than 1,700 school districts in North America and the Caribbean.
Transfinder joins such winners as Paychex, Zillow and 1-800-Flowers.com. Transfinder’s neighbors, DeCrescente Distributing Co. of Mechanicville and LeadingAge New York, a trade association for nonprofit senior service residences based in Latham, are also award winners. The winners will be featured in a special publication profiling the 65 winning organizations and their unique employment perks. The publication will be produced for distribution to event attendees, higher education institutions, as well as thousands of human resources professionals and organizations across New York state.
Transfinder will be honored at an awards dinner to be held at the Albany Marriott on Tuesday, April 21, 2015. Transfinder is among 31 small/medium-sized employers to win the award. In this category, employers have between 15 and 249 employees. Thirty-four large companies with 250 or more employees will also be recognized.
The New York State Society for Human Resource Management (NYS-SHRM) created the award in 2007 as part of a distinctive program to evaluate and rank the best places of employment in the state. NYS-SHRM is an affiliate of the national Society for Human Resources Management, the world’s largest association devoted to human resources, serving the needs of and advancing the interests of the HR profession.
To be considered for participation, organizations had to fulfill specific registration eligibility requirements, then participate in a two-part survey of employee satisfaction and engagement, as well as workplace practices and policies.
Best Companies Group, an independent firm that manages Best Places to Work programs on state, regional and national levels around the world, conducted the survey process, then evaluated the results and determined the best places of employment in the Empire State.
The 2015 Best Companies to Work for in New York State Awards are presented by major sponsor Ryan, as well as five supporting sponsors: Capital District Physicians’ Health Plan Inc. (CDPHP), Broadridge Financial Solutions and Anchin, Block & Anchin LLP. The program is a partnership of NYS-SHRM, The Business Council of New York, Best Companies Group and Journal Multimedia Corporation.
